Default How to launch safari in the terminal of iphone

I want to write a script to launch safari with different urls automatically.
How can I do that in the terminal?
Currently, when I directly call mobilesafari in the terminal, it just hangs there?

What is the parameter format of safari app?

If you want to launch the iPhone's copy of Safari with a particular URL, use the following code:
Code:
	NSURL *theUrl = [NSURL URLWithString:url];
	[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:theUrl];
(Assumes "url" is an NSString containing the URL you want to launch.)

This will exit your app and fire up Safari with the URL you specify, assuming, of course, that the URL starts with http: or https:

With this code, is it possible to write a loop so that I can visit 100 urls automatically in the mobile terminal?
Will it be terminated when safari is launched?
